Chapter 1268: Establish A New Base
Irina’s lips curled after hearing Yabemiya’s words. He had indeed changed after going through certain things. He took more things into consideration now, and was no longer the man who only trusted his longsword.
However, when her gaze landed on Elizabeth and the ladies, her pretty brows rose slightly. These maidens were really very beautiful. It was just like the past; he was always surrounded by beautiful ladies even when he had hidden his ident.i.ty and power.
Thank goodness, I am prettier than them.
…Huh? Isn’t this that bat he had bound up back then? What’s she doing here? Could they have developed feelings for each other? Irina’s gaze stopped on Camilla. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
I’ve been discovered! Camilla was shocked, and felt uneasy instantly. Was she going to be embarra.s.sed in front of so many people?
Irina retrieved her gaze back from Camilla. She didn’t feel that her status was threatened.
After all, Mag couldn’t defeat her in a fight. If he really dared to have thoughts, hoho.
“Don’t mention it.” Gina shook her head on behalf of the Lantisdeans. She spoke a few words to the high priest after she saw those Night Elves who were seriously injured. Then, she asked Irina, “Do you need help? Healing.”
Yabemiya quickly helped to translate when she saw Irina looking rather perplexed. “Gina doesn’t speak the common tongue very well. However, she should be asking if you need help to treat those wounded elves.”
“If possible, please.” Irina’s eyes lit up. She had exhausted all her power, and couldn’t execute healing magic.
Gina understood Irina’s reply, and told the high priest a few words.
The high priest nodded slightly before tossing the crystal ball in his hands out. Streams of icy blue water flowed out of the crystal ball, and washed all over the Night Elves. The blood and dirt on their bodies were cleaned instantly. The arrows and rocks that were embedded in their bodies were removed, and their horrible wounds began to heal in front of their eyes.
In the time of a few breaths, the wounds of the 1000-odd Night Elves had already healed.
Although the missing body parts couldn’t be regrown, the pain was all gone, and there was relief on all the elves’ faces.
“Thank you very much.” Irina thanked them sincerely.
The high priest said a few words to Gina.
“This is our promise to Mr. Mag. If you really want to express your grat.i.tude, say it to him,” Gina said with a smile.
“I will thank him properly.” A smile also appeared on Irina’s face.
“We should be going now.” Gina turned and looked at Yabemiya and Elizabeth. Lantisde shouldn’t be overly exposed.
“Firis, s.h.i.+rley, are you two coming back to Mamy Restaurant with us?” Yabemiya asked.
“Anna brought you up a couple of times. She should be missing you,” Yabemiya said to s.h.i.+rley.
s.h.i.+rley’s lips moved. She looked at Irina’s back and shook her head eventually.
Although Firis was little tempted, she, too, shook her head with conviction as she looked at Irina.
Irina said to both s.h.i.+rley and Firis, “You two go ahead first. I will go to Chaos City to look for you. The Night Elves will rest and grow in Chaos City.”
Firis’ and s.h.i.+rley’s eyes lit up when they heard her. In this case, could they go back to work at Mamy Restaurant again?
Yabemiya and Elizabeth transformed back into giant dragons, and flew to the south with the Lantisdean warriors, Firis, and s.h.i.+rley.
And Camilla swiftly grabbed Babla and caught up. It was too dangerous to stay behind alone. She regretted coming today. She hadn’t got to do anything, and had instead attracted unnecessary attention.
Even if she liked pretty girls, and Irina was indeed very beautiful, she was simply too powerful… and Camilla preferred to be the one in charge.
After everyone had left, Irina said to all the Night Elves, “The Night Elves are still not powerful enough. We need to find a safer place to grow stronger, so I decided to bring the Night Elves southward and integrate into Chaos City. We will establish a new base in Chaos City, and wait for the chance to counterattack the Wind Forest.”

“Chief, the mysterious people had left on dragons’ backs. We don’t know where they’ve gone.”
“The 1000-odd Night Elves are travelling southwards. Do we need to stop them?”
Two pieces of information swiftly reached the goblin chief.
“There’s no need to continue tracking the mysterious people,” the goblin chief ordered in a deep voice after pondering for a moment. “We don’t want to provoke them. Give the Night Elves 1000 good horses for their travel southward.”

In the Mamy Restaurant, Amy, who was hugging Ugly Duckling, worriedly asked, “Big Sister Xixi, when are Father and the rest coming back? Will they be in danger as they are going to fight the bad guys?”
Anna, who was laying her head on the counter, sat up straight and also looked at Xixi nervously.
“Don’t worry. Boss Mag and the rest will be okay. They will be coming back soon,” Xixi said gently, but there was also a hint of worry in her eyes. Although she didn’t know what Boss Mag and the rest had gone to do, it seemed to be a dangerous affair. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have left both the little ones behind at the restaurant.
“Don’t worry, Anna. Father will bring Big Sister s.h.i.+rley and the rest back.” Amy walked over to Anna and held her hand gently.
“Meow.” Ugly Duckling, too, extended its fat paw and laid it on Anna’s hand.
“Ugly Duckling, your fat paw is too heavy,” Amy said disdainfully.
Anna smiled as she looked at Ugly Duckling’s fat little pink paw.

Mag, who had been resting on the back of the white-head eagle for a long time, flipped over. He felt some of his strength had returned to his body after chewing on a few pieces of American ginseng. Looking at the time, they should be heading back soon, so he leaped down from the white-head eagle, which was so terrified now. He stroked the white-head eagle’s head to pacify it.
Shortly after, a golden and a silver giant dragon appeared in the sky.
“Boss, we did it! We got Firis and s.h.i.+rley back,” Yabemiya said as she landed on the mountain and let Firis and s.h.i.+rley off.
“Thank you, Boss,” Firis said to Mag with a blush.
“Thank you.” s.h.i.+rley expressed her grat.i.tude to Mag too. They couldn’t have left the underground cavern alive if the restaurant’s people hadn’t arrived in time.
“We are all family. I’m glad that you all came back.” Mag waved his hands with a smile. Then, he gratefully said to the merfolk’s high priest, “Thank you all for your help.”
“Mr. Mag is being too polite. This is our promise.” The high priest nodded slightly. The merfolk only had a few soldiers who suffered some minor injuries on this mission. Mag’s request wasn’t overboard, and was much easier than he had expected.
“Miya, Elizabeth. Please send them back to Lantisde first,” Mag continued to the two of them.
Two giant dragons flew toward the southwest, and only Mag, Firis, s.h.i.+rley, Babla, and Camilla were left on the mountain top.
“This white-head eagle can only take two people. Who is going to sit with me?” Mag asked all the ladies.
“Me, me, me!”
Babla, who was carried back all the way and frozen stiff, crawled onto the back of the white-head eagle by herself, and settled in the front seat before exhaling a breath of cold air.
